    INTERGOVERNMENTAL COORDINATION GROUP FOR THE TSUNAMI AND OTHER COASTAL HAZARDS WARNING SYSTEM FOR THE CARIBBEAN AND ADJACENT REGIONS (ICG/CARIBE EWS)1 ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE AND GOVERNANCE ICG/CARIBE EWS Organizational Structure and Governance The Intergovernmental Coordination Group for the Tsunami and Other Coastal Hazards Warning System for the Caribbean and Adjacent Regions (ICG/CARIBE EWS) is a subsidiary body of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). It was established in 2005, and is currently comprised of 32 Member States and 16 Territories in the Caribbean and Adjacent Regions and 3 Observer Member States (Annex 1), as well as Observer Organizations (Annex 2). Almost all of the Member States have officially designated Tsunami National Contacts (TNC) and/or Tsunami Warning Focal Points (TWFP). The ICG/CARIBE EWS coordinates international tsunami warning and mitigation activities, including the issuance of timely and understandable tsunami bulletins in the Caribbean. Comprehensive tsunami mitigation programmes require complementary and sustained activities in tsunami hazard risk assessment, tsunami warning and emergency response, and preparedness. Stakeholder involvement and coordination is essential, and community-based, people-centered mitigation activities will help to build tsunami resiliency. More information on the CARIBE EWS is available from http://www.ioc-tsunami.org. The following describes the various components of the ICG and how they work together to enable an effective international warning system. Intergovernmental Coordination Group (ICG) The ICG is an IOC subsidiary body that reports to the IOC Assembly or Executive Council.

M. Ashaduzzaman Nour* Abstract United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization- UNESCO has created a platform for international cooperation in the twenty-first century. In quest of serving the most vulnerable and disadvantaged groups especially women and youth, UNESCO defined five functions. It also serves as a clearing house and global knowledge broker through the involvement of public, private and societal organizations. In the African region, UNESCO tries to ensure human security; fair and comprehensive management of social change; and transformations and maintenance of natural resources. In this perspective, UNESCO assists the international community as a central forum to express the ethical, moral, normative and intellectual issues focusing science and technology especially. There are administrative, financial and societal methodologies for administrative interaction to deliver these five functions of UNESCO effectively. Prioritization of roles, diverse network of national commissions, administrative cooperation, capacity development, knowledge management and communication etc are the key methods for regular interactions among UNESCO Secretariat, Member States, National Commissions and respective field offices of UNESCO to ensure effective delivery of the five functions.
